Prayer Shawl Knitting Group
2nd Saturday every month at 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
All ages are welcome and the group loves to teach beginners how to knit! All completed prayer shawls are blessed through the hands of the entire congregation on Sundays at the Lord’s Supper. They are then available for anyone to take and give to anyone needing comfort and healing. This is an amazing ministry that changes lives and heals souls, and at the same time is a fun and happy fellowship for all!
St. Paul’s Community Farm
Tuesdays and Thursday from 4-6 p.m. All are welcome to a garden plot at St. Paul’s Community Farm! Contact Adrienne Redd at 215-645-2686 for more information.
The Community Farm is an enterprise of the www.BellIndependenceProj.org, offering hands-on instruction in household repairs, cooking, gardening, and more. The non-profit status or 501(c)3 of the Bell Independence Project falls under The Everywhere Project, an anti-hunger and harm reduction program that has been serving people at risk in Philadelphia for over two decades.
The vision of the farm is to teach the public, particularly young people, how to grow food, to promote awareness of local and wild food sources in the greater Philadelphia region (such as maples and maple sugaring), and to provide food, free of charge or residency requirements/administrative burdens to the congregation of Saint Paul’s, clients of the Jenkintown Food Cupboard, those served by the Everywhere Project, and anyone else who wants to volunteer, learn, and/or receive vegetables and other products of the program.
